Muito obrigada! 6 ABSTRACT The occurrence of caterpillars and moths pertaining to Noctuidae (Lepidoptera) may vary according to the environmental conditions and available resources. Some of these species have wide geographic distribution, great dispersal capacity and their caterpillars high potential to cause economic damage to one or more crops. Such characteristics are reported in a growing number of studies related to the ecology and biology of these insects. Elaphria agrotina (Guenée, 1852) has caused losses in recent years, mainly due to its behavior in the field. While the majority of noctuidae caterpillars feed on vegetative and reproductive phases, the immature stages of E. agrotina show a preference for dry plant structures. In the laboratory, this species demonstrated a better performance in an artificial diet rich in carbohydrates. It is emphasized that E. agrotina is a small species, but even in a more adequate artificial diet, it had slow development when compared to other noctuids with twice its size. Another curious aspect of the development of E. agrotina is that when grown on a diet considered less adequate, caterpillars present a reduction in the number of larval instars, a situation contrary to lepidoptera, which increase the number of instars. The concomitant occurrence of E. agrotina was also observed in different locations of Brazil, with different types of vegetation cover, this demonstrates its biological plasticity in occupying native and anthropized environments. An association was observed between the population peaks of the species with the beginning of the driest seasons and / or the end of the crop cycle, when there is greater availability of dry plant material. It should be noted that the number of moths collected correlated more with the climatic variables measured 35 and 50 days before collection, which corresponds to the conditions in which the immature were in the field. Keywords: Population fluctuation, light trap, artificial diet, mass rearing. 7 RESUMO A ocorrência de lagartas e mariposas pertecentes a Noctuidae (Lepidoptera) pode variar de acordo com as condições ambientais e recursos disponíveis. Algumas dessas espécies possuem ampla distribuição geográfica, grande capacidade de dispersão e suas lagartas elevado potencial para ocasionar danos econômicos a uma ou mais culturas. Tais características são relatadas em um número crescente de estudos relacionados com a ecologia e biologia desses insetos. Elaphria agrotina (Guenée, 1852) passou a ocasionar prejuízos nos últimos anos, devido principalmente ao seu comportamento em campo. Enquanto a maioria das lagartas dos noctuídeos se alimentam de culturas na fase vegetativa e reprodutiva, os estágios imaturos de E. agrotina apresentam preferência por estruturas vegetais secas, em laboratório, essa espécie demonstrou melhor desempenho em dieta artificial rica em carboidratos. Ressalta-se que E. agrotina é uma espécie pequena, porém, mesmo em dieta artificial mais adequada, teve desenvolvimento lento quando comparado ao de outros noctuídeos com o dobro do seu tamanho. Outro aspecto curioso do desenvolvimento de E. agrotina é que quando criada em dieta considerada menos adequada, as lagartas apresentam uma redução no número de instares larvais, situação contrária aos lepidópteros, que aumentam o número de instares. Verificou-se ainda a ocorrência concomitante de E. agrotina em distintos locais do Brasil, com diferentes tipos de cobertura vegetal, isso demonstra a sua plasticidade biológica em ocupar ambientes nativos e antropizados. Notou-se uma associação entre os picos populacionais da espécie com o início das épocas mais secas e/ou de final de ciclo das culturas, quando há maior disponibilidade de material vegetal seco. Ressalta-se que o número de mariposas coletadas se correlacionou mais com as variáveis climáticas medidas 35 e 50 dias antes das coletas, o que corresponde às condições em que os imaturos estavam em campo. Palavras-chave: Flutuação populacional, armadilha luminosa, dieta artificial, criação massal 8 Sumário ABSTRACT .............................................................................................................................................. 7 RESUMO .................................................................................................................................................. 8 LISTA DE FIGURAS .............................................................................................................................. 10 LISTA DE TABELAS .............................................................................................................................. 13 LISTA DE APÊNDICES .......................................................................................................................... 15 ESTRUTURA DA DISSERTAÇÃO ......................................................................................................... 16 INTRODUÇÃO GERAL .......................................................................................................................... 17 OBJETIVOS............................................................................................................................................ 19 1.2.1.

A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

  • Insect Survey of Four Longleaf Pine Preserves
    A SURVEY OF THE MOTHS, BUTTERFLIES, AND GRASSHOPPERS OF FOUR NATURE CONSERVANCY PRESERVES IN SOUTHEASTERN NORTH CAROLINA Stephen P. Hall and Dale F. Schweitzer November 15, 1993 ABSTRACT Moths, butterflies, and grasshoppers were surveyed within four longleaf pine preserves owned by the North Carolina Nature Conservancy during the growing season of 1991 and 1992. Over 7,000 specimens (either collected or seen in the field) were identified, representing 512 different species and 28 families. Forty-one of these we consider to be distinctive of the two fire- maintained communities principally under investigation, the longleaf pine savannas and flatwoods. An additional 14 species we consider distinctive of the pocosins that occur in close association with the savannas and flatwoods. Twenty nine species appear to be rare enough to be included on the list of elements monitored by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (eight others in this category have been reported from one of these sites, the Green Swamp, but were not observed in this study). Two of the moths collected, Spartiniphaga carterae and Agrotis buchholzi, are currently candidates for federal listing as Threatened or Endangered species. Another species, Hemipachnobia s. subporphyrea, appears to be endemic to North Carolina and should also be considered for federal candidate status. With few exceptions, even the species that seem to be most closely associated with savannas and flatwoods show few direct defenses against fire, the primary force responsible for maintaining these communities. Instead, the majority of these insects probably survive within this region due to their ability to rapidly re-colonize recently burned areas from small, well-dispersed refugia.

    Contributions Toward a Lepidoptera (Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, Thyrididae, Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, & Noctuoidea) Biodiversity Inventory of the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab Hugo L. Kons Jr. Last Update: June 2001 Abstract A systematic check list of 489 species of Lepidoptera collected in the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab is presented, including 464 species in the superfamilies Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, and Noctuoidea. Taxa recorded in Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, and Thyrididae are also included. Moth taxa were collected at ultraviolet lights, bait, introduced Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum), and by netting specimens. A list of taxa recorded feeding on P. notatum is presented. Introduction The University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Laboratory (NATL) contains 40 acres of natural habitats maintained for scientific research, conservation, and teaching purposes. Habitat types present include hammock, upland pine, disturbed open field, cat tail marsh, and shallow pond. An active management plan has been developed for this area, including prescribed burning to restore the upland pine community and establishment of plots to study succession (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/natl.htm). The site is a popular collecting locality for student and scientific collections. The author has done extensive collecting and field work at NATL, and two previous reports have resulted from this work, including: a biodiversity inventory of the butterflies (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea & Papilionoidea) of NATL (Kons 1999), and an ecological study of Hermeuptychia hermes (F.) and Megisto cymela (Cram.) in NATL habitats (Kons 1998). Other workers have posted NATL check lists for Ichneumonidae, Sphecidae, Tettigoniidae, and Gryllidae (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/insect.htm).

(Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is the principal native pest of grape in the Palearctic region. In the present study, we assessed prospectively the relative abundance of the moth in Europe and the Mediterranean Basin using linked physiologically-based demographic models for grape and L. botrana. The model includes the effects of temperature, day-length and fruit stage on moth development rates, survival and fecundity. 2 Daily weather data for 1980–2010 were used to simulate the dynamics of grapevine and L. botrana in 4506 lattice cells across the region. Average grape yield and pupae per vine were used as metrics of favourability. The results were mapped using the grass Geographic Information System (http://grass.osgeo.org). 3 The model predicts a wide distribution for L. botrana with highest populations in warmer regions in a wide band along latitude 40∘N. 4 The effects of climate warming on grapevine and L. botrana were explored using regional climate model projections based on the A1B scenario of an average +1.8 ∘C warming during the period 2040–2050 compared with the base period (1960–1970).
